Gifts in Auckland

“I've been an Auckland CBD resident for nearly six years. In all that time Roma Blooms has been a fixture for me - a smiling face when I needed, a considered commenter on CBD issues of the day, and a vendor of beautiful flowers. They've done it tough - like all the businesses around here, waiting for the day when the trains will run and the sea of cones will be a distant memory. Like all businesses they need our support. I'm a regular customer and would love to see more residents become regular customers. How can we help? By visiting their store. Getting to know the people behind the flowers. I have no hesitation in recommending Roma Blooms to my neighbourhood.”

“Hello Darling is one of my favourite boutique stores, it stocks amazing brands, so many New Zealand made products it’s truely a store you never walk out of empty handed. The owner Clare, and daughter Kaitlin are the most beautiful souls you will ever meet and always go above and beyond to help you find the perfect something be it for yourself, or a gift for someone special. When ever I place an online order, my order is swiftly dispatched on a courier and I have it so quickly, always wrapped up so beautifully and carefully in tissue. I would recommend dropping into Millwater to have a look at her new beautiful store she has opened and to see the beautiful quality brands she stocks or just to stop in to say hi to Clare or Kaitlin. Thanks so much for always helping me when I come in girls! Wish I could give you more than 5 stars you deserve more.”

“Had such lovely service today from Serena, I came in just wanting to buy a ring sizer to take home, but Serena went all out and helped me size 3 different fingers, wrote them all down for me and even went out of her way to clean my current rings for me. She had such a sweet presence about her too. Always love coming to the Silverdale Walker and Hall, the ladies there are so welcoming!”

“An excellent experience from phoning and speaking to Trina to placing my online order. The arrangement is beautiful and fresh and lived up to the online website photo. Delivered when requested - a stunning arrangement for my daughter's 50th birthday - to greet her when she arrives back from overseas today. Thank you!”

“Absolutely Gorgeous bouquet made for my mum. Classy beautiful and fresh flowers. Amazing thank you Denise.”

“A charming guesthouse on the outskirts of Auckland, quiet and relatively close to the city itself, half an hour by car and conveniently located near the Swanson train station which leads to the city center if necessary.

“Had a great lunch stop on the way to the airport on Tuesday. The range of GP beers is always a selection dilemma, but settled on a February Fresh IPA... delicious. Enjoyed a great VEGAN masala toastie. Guys you really need to refresh the menu and add more plant-based choices!”

“A good sized liquor store, often with deals if you're open minded with what you want to drink. Friendly staff. Close to glenfield mall, macdonalds, burger fuel and other fast food if you're after food too. Be aware that the liquor laws mean alcohol shops can't sell after 9pm now.”

“Kids Cove is a amazing centre. My son has been attending the centre for a year and a half and I am grateful for the time , effort, love and care that was given to him. Especially the Storytellers team, Teacher Shuchie and her team have done an amazing job teaching my son, he comes home every day using big words like Translucent and Transparent and explaining to me what those words mean. Those are just a simple example of how much my son has thrived intellectually and emotionally at Kids Cove.”

“I ordered a beautiful white Phalaenopsis Orchid in a Pot from Flowers By Joanne at 10:30am this morning—I needed them delivered to my friends house as a gift and at 2:30pm today he sent me a very smiley photo featuring his glorious new plant inside his home. Thank you for the great service Joanne and the team. I really appreciate it!”

“I ordered flowers for my dear friend’s 40th birthday. I live in Canada, and would absolutely order from Bev again. The arrangement was bigger & better than I anticipated, they hand wrote my msg on a card & delivered to her door. She loved it. Sometimes you’re not sure when you’re ordering flowers internationally, and I can confidently say I would order again from them!”
